The set includes circus carnival cupcake toppers, water bottle wrappers, tinted cards, a mini happy birthday banner, and some circus carnival/ straw flags to decorate your drinks.

2: Bean Ban Toss

A good old circus party favorite has to be a carnival can beanbag toss, right?

Stack up these wonderful circus-themed cans to form a pyramid, and let your guests have a go, throwing bean bags at them to knock them down.

Make a line on the ground with some string, or even a twig, so people know where to stand.

Each player gets three tries at throwing a bean bag at the cans. Each can is worth a point.

Keep score and whoever ends the game with the most points wins a prize!

3: Duck Shooting Gallery

Another carnival classic is a duck shooting gallery, where everyone gets to step up and test their shooting skills by aiming at a duck.

Each player earns points for every duck they dunk and wins a prize according to their final score.

This shooting gallery comes with either a NERF gun or some bean bags.

4: Shooting Gallery

Similar to the previous duck shooting gallery, for this carnival party game, instead of aiming at ducks, each player tries to knock down as many stars as they can so they can win a cool prize.

This game comes with a Nerf gun, but you can easily use a cork gun or a toy crossbow instead.

5: Tattoo Booth

For more carnival fun, treat your guests to a trip to a tattoo booth where they can get tatted up with some temporary tattoo transfers.

Use some circus-inspired tattoos to match your theme!

6: Tic-Tac-Toe

Tic-Tac-Toe is a classic that everyone loves to play, and is great for all ages.

Hang a bunch of colorful balloons in this stand and leave some darts out for your guests to have a go, seeing who can pop the most balloons!

The prize goes to whomever pops the most!

9: Number Matching

This number game is perfect for anyone that loves a good memory game. It’s a play on the vintage Concentration game.

The more matching numbers found by the end of the game the bigger the prize!

A Bacon run game is always such a laugh because you never know who’s going to win!
